nce and support from the eagles in your life. Never be afraid to ask questions and seek help.
Make your dreams real
The best way to do this is to write down every dream or idea you have. Writing them down makes your dreams something tangible you can see and work on. Vocalize your dream. Visualize yourself reaching your goal. Make sure you jealously guard your dreams against negative thoughts and words.
Small steps
When you think of how BIG a problem or task is, you give yourself BIG worries! Break every problem into smaller tasks and solve them one by one. Remember… to move a mountain, you do it one stone at a time, one rock at a time, one boulder at a
time.
Persistence and patience
If a dream is worth dreaming, it's worth struggling for. Problems WILL arise but remember that every problem is an
opportunity for you to learn to become stronger, smarter and more resilient. Take every problem in stride and keep your eyes
fixed on your goal.

Distressed Properties Shouldn't Distress YouFor many real estate investors, the best investment they will ever make is in distressed property. You know the ones. They look tired. They are ill kept. They feel worn. Not the investors, the properties.The best reason for considering distressed properties are that they need change, and making a needed change is very positive for the buyer. The reason a property is distressed is because of bad management, poor maintenance, low quality occupants, dated components, etc. In each of those cases, a little change can make a big difference.After the purchase, elbow grease is often the biggest investment that needs to be made. With a few hours work in a yard, the curb appeal can
Thinking of starting a home based business can be a scary affair. After the thrill of getting that brilliant idea, it’s
usually in that first battle with the mind that people lose and give up. Our minds are terribly good at looking at the down
side of things. Here are SEVEN SCARY reasons why people shy away from starting their own home based business and SEVEN SIMPLE steps to help you overcome those fears.
Fear of failure and making mistakes.
Nobody like’s making mistakes and failing, especially if it concerns something major like starting a home based business.
That’s why many people take the easy way out and quit. After all, if you don’t try, then you won’t fail.
Fear of change.
Running a home based business (any business for that matter) often forces you to change and improve your attitude, working
style, personal preferences and bad habits. Unfortunately, most of us would rather accept the problems we DO know than the
possibilities we DON’T. We’re often caught in a comfort zone – and it cripples our dreams and limits our potential!
Fear of commitment and responsibility
In many ways, it’s easier to work for someone else. You needn’t worry about the thousands of details that your boss has to
consider. A home based business is a guaranteed crash course in commitment and responsibility! There is NO running away from
the boss, NO hiding from the customers and NO switching off your mind after work!
Fear of hard work.
When we first started our home catering business, I had LOTS of problems adapting. I went from being a web developer in long
sleeves and tie in a nice comfy office to an apron in a hot, stuffy kitchen, cleaning and chopping chicken, meat, fish and
veggie, scrubbing the kitchen, pot, pans and stove, taking out tons of garbage and well… you get the idea… Yes, there were
days when I was tempted to give all this hard work!
Fear of success.
I’ve got to be honest - one of the major reasons I shied away from starting my own home based business for so long was the
fear of success! It seemed so much easier to just be my old self, holding on to my old goals. Mediocrity is a whole lot
easier to achieve than success. I feared having to face ALL the seven scary reasons listed here!
Fear of competition.
You may be worried about competitors but the truth is that when you’re a newbie, the big boys probably won’t notice you. It’s
when you’ve been around for a while and maybe when some of their customers have made their way to you that they begin
noticing. The good thing is that by then, you should have gained sufficient experience and be savvy enough to stand your own ground.
Fear of uncertainty.
No doubt about it. Running a home based business WILL mean lots of uncertainties, but isn’t it be better knowing YOU were in
control of these uncertainties instead of your boss or someone you don’t even know?
Okay… that was pretty nasty medicine. Reality always is. Now that we’ve faced seven scary reasons not to start a home based
business, here are seven simple steps to overcome them…
Reality check!
Know yourself – what you're good at and what you're not. Know what drives you and what you're passionate about. Starting a
home based business around what you do best is the easiest way to start.
Do your homework
Find out everything you can about the business you want to start. Visit the library. Scour the Internet. Ask people who are already doing it or have done it. Mind you, make sure they've been successful at it, otherwise they're going to lead you in the wrong direction.
Don't walk with turkeys
You can't fly with eagles when you keep walking with turkeys! Every negative word you hear (from turkeys) will scribble its
way into your subconscious. If you keep company with turkeys, your hopes and dreams are probably going to end up burnt to a
crisp and served on the thanksgiving table.
Fly with eagles
Keep company with eagles – positive people who know what it takes to make dreams come true! Keep your heart and mind fixed on your goal. If you're sure your home based business is workable, then find ways to work it! Seek guidance and support from the eagles in your life. Never be afraid to ask questions and seek help.

Why Be An Affiliate Marketer?What is affiliate marketing and why should you be in this business?Affiliate marketing is one of the easiest ways to start an online business,
even without your own website (though it's not recommended).Affiliate Marketing allows a seller and website owner to come together
for mutual benefits. Website owners agree to be a representative or
an affiliate of the seller and use their sites to promote the sellers'
products and services.And when a sale is made, the seller pays the website owner commission,
usually a certain percentage of the sale price.This arrangement is a win-win scenario. The sellers or merchants as it's commonly

Why the Business Dashboard in Your Strategic Plan Does Not Include Cruise ControlThe strategic plan in today's competitive marketplace includes a new tool – the business dashboard.
